A wild new angle from a recent Portland protest shows the moment tensions boiled over and several protesters were detained by federal agents. What began as a shouting match quickly turned into a full-blown scuffle as people tried to push through the line.
In the footage, agents can be seen struggling to control the crowd while a few individuals refuse to back down. The situation spirals as multiple people are restrained on the ground, with bystanders shouting and recording the unfolding scene.
The clip has been circulating online, with some calling it another example of protests getting out of hand while others argue that agents used necessary force to restore order.
No major injuries were reported, but officials confirmed that several individuals were taken into custody for interfering with federal operations.
